I Samuela 20
1 HOLO aku la o Davida mai Naiota i Rama aku, a hele mai, a i mai la imua o Ionatana, Heaha la ka'u i hana'i heaha ko'u hewa, heaha KO'U hala imua o kou makuakane, i imi mai ai ia i kuu ola?
Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came and said to Jonathan, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? What is my sin before your father, that he seeks to take my life?”
2 I mai la oia ia ia, Aole loa; aole oe e make: aia hoi, aole e hana ko'u makuakane i ka mea nui, aole hoi i ka mea liilii, ke hai ole mai oia ia'u; no ke aha la ko'u makuakane i huna'i i keia mea ia'u? Aole pela.
Jonathan said to David, “Far from it; you will not die. My father does nothing either great or small without telling it to me. Why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so.”
3 Hoohiki aku la o Davida, i aku la, Ua ike pono kou makuakane i ka loaa ana ia'u o ke aloha imua o kou maka; a ua olelo iho, Aole e hoike keia mea ia Ionatana, o kaumaha ia: aka, he oiaio, ma ke ola o Iehova, a me ke ola o kou uhane, hookahi kapuwai wale no i koe iwaena o'u a me ka make.
Yet David vowed again and said, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes. He has said, 'Do not let Jonathan know this, or he will be grieved.' But as truly as Yahweh lives, and as you live, there is but a step between me and death.”
4 Olelo aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, O ka mea a kou naau e i mai ai, o ka'u ia e hana aku ai ia oe.
Then Jonathan said to David, “Whatever you say, I will do for you.”
5 I mai la o Davida ia Ionatana, Aia hoi, apopo ka malama hou, a he pono ia'u e noho pu me ke alii i ka ahaaina: aka, e kuu mai oe ia'u, a huna au ia'u iho ma ke kula, a hiki i ke ahiahi o ka po akolu.
David said to Jonathan, “Tomorrow is the new moon, and I ought to sit down to eat with the king. But let me go, so that I may hide myself in the field until the third day at evening.
6 Ina paha i ike kou makuakane i ko'u nalo ana, alaila e i aku oe, Ua noi ikaika mai o Davida ia'u e holo ia ma Betelehema i kona kulanakauhale; no ka mea, ilaila ka mohai makahiki no ka ohana a pau.
If your father misses me at all, then say, 'David earnestly asked leave of me that he might run to Bethlehem his city; because it is the yearly sacrifice there for all the clan.'
7 Ina paha i olelo mai ia peneia, Ua pono; ina na maluhia kau kauwa: aka, ina paha i huhu nui mai ia, he oiaio, ua ino kona manao ana mai.
If he says, 'It is well,' your servant will have peace. But if he is very angry, then know that he has decided on evil.
8 No ia mea, e hana mai i kau kauwa me ke aloha; no ka mea, ua hookomo mai oe i kau kauwa iloko o ke kuikahi me oe ma o Iehova la: ina paha he hewa iloko o'u, nau no wau e pepehi; no ke aha la oe e lawe aku ai ia'u i kou makuakane?
Therefore deal kindly with your servant. For you have brought your servant into a covenant of Yahweh with you. But if there is sin in me, kill me yourself; for why then should you bring me to your father?”
9 I aku la o Ionatana, Aole loa ia mea ia oe: no ka mea, ina paha i ike pono wau, ua ino ka manao ana o ko'u makuakane e hele mai maluna ou, aole anei au i hai aku ia oe?
Jonathan said, “Far be it from you! If I learned my father decided harm to come upon you, would I not tell you?”
10 I mai o Davida ia Ionatana, Nawai la wau e hai mai? Pehea la, ke olelo pakike mai kou makuakane ia oe?
Then David said to Jonathan, “Who will tell me if by chance your father should answer you roughly?”
11 I aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, Ea, e hele kaua iwaho ma ke kula, A hele aku la laua ma ke kula.
Jonathan said to David, “Come, let us go out into the field.” So they both went out into the field.
12 I aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, E Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, aia e ninau pono aku au i ko'u makuakane i kekahi manawa i ka la apopo, a ia la aku paha, aia hoi, he mea pono no Davida, a e hoouna ole aku au iou la, a e hai ia oe;
Jonathan said to David, “May Yahweh, the God of Israel, be witness. When I have questioned my father around this time tomorrow, or the third day, see, if there is good will toward David, will I not then send to you and make it known to you?
13 E hana mai o Iehova ia Ionatana pela, a nui aku hoi: ina paha i makemake ko'u makuakane e hana ino ia oe; alaila e hai aku au ia oe, a e hookuu aku ia oe e hele oe me ke aloha; a o Iehova pu kekahi me oe, e like me ia mamua me ko'u makuakane.
If it pleases my father to do you harm, may Yahweh do to Jonathan and more also if I do not make it known to you and send you away, so that you may go in peace. May Yahweh be with you, as he has been with my father.
14 Aole i ko'u manawa e ola ana wale no oe e hoike mai ia'u i ka lokomaikai o Iehova, i make ole ai au;
If I am still alive, will you not show me the covenant faithfulness of Yahweh, that I may not die?
15 Aka, mai hooki oe i kou lokomaikai i ko'u hale i na manawa a pau; aole hoi i ka manawa e hookiia'i na enemi a pau o Davida, mai ke alo aku o ka honua.
Do not cut off your covenant faithfulness from my house forever—not even when Yahweh cuts off every one of the enemies of David from the face of the earth.”
16 A kuikahi iho la o Ionatana me ko ka hale o Davida, [i ka i ana, ] Na Iehova e imi mai ia ma ka lima o ko Davida poe enemi.
So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David and said, “May Yahweh require an accounting from the hand of the enemies of David.”
17 A hoohiki hou aku la o Ionatana me Davida, no kona aloha ia ia; no ka mea, ua aloha no oia ia ia, e like me ia i aloha ai i kona ola iho.
Jonathan made David vow again because of the love that he had for him, because he loved him as he loved his own soul.
18 I aku la o Ionatana ia ia, Apopo ka mahina hou; a e ikeia kou nalo ana, no ka mea, e ikeia kou noho kaawale.
Then Jonathan said to him, “Tomorrow is the new moon. You will be missed because your seat will be empty.
19 A i ka po akolu, e iho wawe oe a hiki ma kahi au i pee ai i ka la o ka hana ana, a e noho oe ma ka pohaku o Ezela:
When you have stayed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid yourself when the business was in hand, and stay by the stone Ezel.
20 A e pana aku au i na pua ekolu ma ka aoao, e like me ka pana ana'ku i ka hoailona.
I will shoot three arrows to the side of it, as though I were shooting at a target.
21 Aia hoi, e hoouna aku au i kekahi keiki e hele e imi i na pua. A ina paha e olelo akaka aku au i ke keiki, Aia na pua ma keia aoao ou, e lawe ia mau mea; alaila e hele mai oe: no ka mea, he pomaikai nou, aohe mea ino, ma ke ola o Iehova.
Then I will send my young man and say to him, 'Go find the arrows.' If I say to the young boy, 'Look, the arrows are on this side of you; get them,” then come; for there will be safety for you and not harm, as Yahweh lives.
22 Aka, ina e olelo aku au i ke keiki peneia, Aia na pua ma o aku ou; alaila e hele e aku oe: no ka mea, na Iehova oe i Hoouna aku ai.
“But if I say to the young man, 'Look, the arrows are beyond you,' then go your way, for Yahweh has sent you away.
23 A ma ka mea a kaua i kamailio ai, aia hoi, o Iehova no iwaena o kaua i ka manawa a pau.
As for the agreement of which you and I have spoken, see, Yahweh is between you and me forever.'”
24 A pee iho la o Davida ma ke kula: a hiki mai ka mahina hou, noho iho la ke alii e ahaaina ai.
So David hid himself in the field. When the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
25 Noho iho ke alii maluna o kona noho, me ia i ka manawa mamua, maluna o ka noho ma ka paia: a ku ae la o Ionatana, a noho iho la o Abenera ma ka aoao o Saula, a ua kaawale ko Davida wahi.
The king sat on his seat, as usual, on the seat by the wall. Jonathan stood up, and Abner sat by Saul's side. But David's place was empty.
26 Aka, aole o Saula i olelo iki ia la: no ka mea, manao iho la ia, ua hiki mai kekahi mea ia ia, ua haumia oia; oiaio, ua haumia oia.
Yet Saul did not say anything that day, because he thought, “Something has happened to him. He is not clean; surely he is not clean.”
27 A ia la ae, oia ka po alua o ka malama, ua kaawale ko Davida wahi; ninau aku la o Saula ia Ionatana i kana keiki, No ke aha la i hele ole mai ai ke keiki a Iese i ka ahaaina inehinei a i keia la?
But on the second day, the day after the new moon, David's place was empty. Saul said to Jonathan his son, “Why has the son of Jesse not come to the meal either yesterday or today?”
28 I mai la o Ionatana ia Saula, Ua noi ikaika mai o Davida ia'u, e hele ia ma Betelehema.
Jonathan answered Saul, “David earnestly asked permission from me to go to Bethlehem.
29 A i mai la ia, Ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e kuu mai oe ia'u e hele, no ka mea, he mohai ohana no makou ma ke kulanakauhale, a ua kauoha mai kuu kaikuaana ia'u; ano hoi, ina ua loaa ia'u ke aloha i kou maka, e ae mai oe ia'u e hele koke aku au e ike i ko'u mau hoahanau: oia ka mea i hele ole mai ai ia i ka papaaina o ke alii.
He said, 'Please let me go. For our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has ordered me to be there. Now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me go and see my brothers.' For this reason he has not come to the king's table.”
30 Alaila hoaia ka inaina o Saula ia Ionatana, i aku la ia ia, E ke keiki paakiki, kekee, aole anei au i ike, ua koho aku oe i ke keiki a Iese, i mea hilahila nou, a me ka hilahila o kahi huna o kou makuwahine?
Then Saul's anger burned against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame, and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
31 No ka mea, i na la a pau o ke ola ana o ke keiki a Iese maluna o ka honua, aole e hookupaaia oe a me kou aupuni: ano hoi, e hoouna aku oe, a e lawe mai ia ia io'u nei, no ka mea, e pono no ia ke make.
For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, neither you nor your kingdom will be established. Now then, send and bring him to me, for he must surely die.”
32 Olelo mai la o Ionatana ia Saula i kona makuakane, i mai la ia ia, No ke aha la e pepehiia'i oia? heaha kana i hana'i?
Jonathan answered Saul his father, “For what reason should he be put to death? What has he done?”
33 Hou aku la o Saula i ka ihe ia ia e pepehi ia ia: no ia mea, ike iho la o Ionatana i ka manao ana o kona makuakane e pepehi ia Davida.
Then Saul threw his spear at him to kill him. So Jonathan knew that his father was determined to put David to death.
34 Ku ae la o Ionatana mai ka papaaina mai me ka huhu wela, aole ia i ai i ka ai i ka lua o ka la o ka malama, no kona kaumaha ia Davida, no ka mea, ua olelo hoino kona makuakane ia ia.
Jonathan got up from the table in fierce anger and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved over David, because his father had dishonored him.
35 A i kakahiaka ae, hele aku la o Ionatana ma ke kula i ka manawa i oleloia ai me Davida, a me ia pu kekahi keiki.
In the morning, Jonathan went out into the field to the appointment with David, and a young man was with him.
36 I aku la ia i kona keiki, E holo, e imi i na pua a'u e pana aku ai. A i kona holo ana, pana aku la ia i ka pua ma o aku ona.
He said to his young man, “Run and find the arrows that I shoot.” As the young man ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
37 A hiki aku la ke keiki ma kahi o ka pua a Ionatana i pana aku ai, kahea aku la o Ionatana i ke keiki, i aku la, Aole anei ma o aku ou ka pua?
When the young man came to the place where the arrow that Jonathan shot had landed, Jonathan called after the young man, and said, “Is not the arrow beyond you?”
38 Kahea aku la o Ionatana mahope o ke keiki, E lalelale, e wiki, mai kali oe. Hoiliili ae la ke keiki o Ionatana i na pua, a hoi mai i kona haku.
Then Jonathan called after the young man, “Hurry, be quick, do not stay!” So Jonathan's young man gathered up the arrows and came to his master.
39 Aole ike iki ua keiki la: o Ionatana laua o Davida wale no ka i ike ia mea.
But the young man did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew the matter.
40 Haawi aku la o Ionatana i kana mea kaua ma kona keiki, i aku la ia ia, O hele, a lawe aku ma ke kulanakauhale.
Jonathan gave his weapons to his young man and said to him, “Go, take them to the city.”
41 A hala aku la ke keiki, ku ae la o Davida ma ke kukuluhema, a haule iho la ilalo ke alo ma ka honua, a kulou iho la ekolu kulou ana: honi iho la laua kekahi i kekahi, a uwe pu laua, a nui aku la ka Davida.
As soon as the young man was gone, David stood up from behind the mound, lay facedown on the ground, and bowed himself three times. They kissed one another and wept together, with David weeping the more.
42 I aku la o Ionatana ia Davida, O hele me ka malu, no ka mea, ua hoohiki kaua a elua ma ka inoa o Iehova, i ka i ana ae, O Iehova no iwaena o'u a o oe, a iwaena hoi o ko'u hua a o kou hua i ka manawa a pau. Ku ae la ia, a hele aku la; a hoi aku la o Ionatana ma ke kulanakauhale.
Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, because we have both sworn in the name of Yahweh and said, 'May Yahweh be between you and me, and between my descendants and your descendants, forever.'” Then David stood up and left, and Jonathan returned to the city.
